Love of Flying

“Aerodynamically, the bumblebee shouldn’t be able to fly. But the bumblebee doesn’t know that, so it goes on flying anyway.”—Mary Kay Ash

Carol Allen is a high-energy, darling astrologer who loves to travel. While taking my workshop, she created a new affirmation for herself: “Money is flying at me from all directions.” Here is her report:

“I started saying this for ten minutes a day and within a week, money started to come to me through flying. First, my long-distance boyfriend sent me a round-trip ticket to visit him in New Mexico. Then, while using the ticket at the airport, Southwest airlines gave me a voucher for twenty dollars off my next flight. In all my years of flying, I’d never heard of such a thing. At the gate of my connecting flight, they gave me another voucher for another twenty dollars. I had a fabulous trip!

(continued on page 47 of The Wealthy Spirit due to my publisher’s request not to have the entire book online)

Today’s Affirmation (of course!): “Money is flying at me from all directions!”

Back in my acting days, I got a call to audition for a Pillsbury Flour television commercial. They were looking for my “type” – a young woman homemaker baking in the kitchen. But it was going to be a regional commercial that would run in the Southern United States, so they stressed that an authentic Southern accent was required.

I called my boyfriend Stan about the casting opportunity, but told him I didn’t think it was right for me because I wasn’t really from the South. I knew what they wanted because my mother was born and raised in Mississippi, and although she had lived in California for 25 years, she never lost her accent. (It was pretty funny when she tried to help me with my French. Have you ever heard French spoken with a Southern accent? Oy.)

“Chellie, have you ever listened to yourself after you talk with your mother?” Stan admonished me. “Just call your mom and talk with her for five minutes before the audition. You’ll be fine!”

I had to laugh at that, so I invented an affirmation for myself that I spoke with a perfect Southern accent. Then I followed his instructions and had a lovely talk with my mom and sure enough, her lilting drawl started creeping into my speech pattern.

When the producers and director called me into the casting area and had me stand in front of the camera, the director said amiably, “Hi, Chellie.”

“Hi, y’all,” I replied. (Phonetically, this sounds like “Haa, yawl”.)

He grinned, and said, “Chellie is an interesting name. Where did that come from?”

I said, “It’s a family name. My mother is from Mississippi and her name is Chellie LeNell. My grandmother is Chellie Estelle, my cousin is Chellie Lou, and I’m Chellie Lynn.” Everyone in the room perked up and laughed at that.

“Isn’t that confusing at family reunions?” he asked.

“No, sir, it’s the South you know, and we always use two names, like Billy Jo and Jim Bob and so there’s no mistake at all.”

I got the job.

Have you ever talked your way into believing in something that on the face of it, looked like it couldn’t happen – but then you did it anyway? Go for your dream today, no matter what “facts” are standing in your way!

“I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to create your workshop and share it with us. The training I received in your workshop was incredible and the best thing I could have done as a brand new business owner because I am going to start my business the right way. And thanks for being you, because you give me permission to be me, and I love that.”—Jenee Dana, My Focus Book, LLC, 323-356-0420, ucla.jenee@ymail.com

"I started reading Chellie's book and doing her affirmations about a year before I took her class. Prior to this I had many customers (30) that bid me out for each and every project (no quality customers). There was too much to manage and no continuity. A year later I had only 5 customers with regular monthly business and am billing more than double what I had in past years. Less stress, more money and a better life! Thank you Chellie for your help! My only mistake was not taking the class sooner!" — Jennifer Christianson, Account Executive, Transcontinental Direct, 310-937-2483

"I took Chellie's Stress Reduction earlier this year and things went great — for awhile. While slogging through a particular "effort-full" month I spotted I had stopped applying some of the principles in the workshop. So I decided right there to sign up for Chellie's follow-on workshop, and immediately made over $45,000 in commissions in the two weeks after I started. Coincidence? I think not!" — Jack Molisani, Lead Recruiter, ProSpring Technical Staffing, 888-378-2333 Ext. 2, www.ProSpring.net

"Chellie's teachings, affirmations, words, workshop homework and, most importantly, her wisdom and fun-loving spirit helped shift old patterns and belief systems and revolutionize my life — above and beyond the finances.During her workshop, money flowed to me in increasing amounts even though Iwas starting up a new business at the time did not have a product to sell. I followed her homework suggestions and did the daily affirmations and my old programming about money dramatically shifted… money showed up in the form of unearned income: a reduction in my home and office rent, lowered rates through vendors and extra capital from investors--without asking. Even the right materials for my designs showed up in October--after a frustrating and exhaustive 1 1/2 year global search. But the most important shifts came through changes in my belief system which helped me build a solid foundation for my budding business. I am grateful to Chellie, her wit, smile and laughter--her gold shoes and magic wands. My business, my health, my wealth and I thank you! Take Chellie's workshop-- it will change your life! You will never fear your finances again!" — P. Hamilton, P. Hamilton Design

"I have to tell you this is the most fun workshop/class/seminar I've ever taken — and you know what a seminar junkie I am. Besides getting a lot of great information and meeting wonderful people (Dolphins, as Chellie calls us), it's just a kick to spend time with one of the most enlightened and entertaining women I've ever met. One of the results I've gotten from the class: I'm about to pay off $24,000 of my $32,000 credit card debt (mostly from seminars, instructional books and CDs!). Another: I'm inspired to start my own coaching sessions and workshops. In my book, Chellie is a goddess! — Moira Shepard, Radio Host, 310-923-8551, www.TriumphOverTrauma.com
